For Halloween, Rivian has come up with a trick that will delight classic TV fans and tech enthusiasts alike. In a nostalgic nod to the iconic Knight Rider series, Rivian's latest software update, brought to you by David Hasselhoff himself, offers a thrilling nostalgic experience inside the car's interior.

With this update, Rivian brings the K2000, Knight Rider's beloved AI car, back to life on vehicle displays. Once activated, the update transforms the Rivian's internal display to mimic the K2000's control and button layout, complete with distinct sound effects that fans of the series will instantly recognize. It's an immersive way for drivers to experience a little '80s sci-fi technology in a modern car.

Going further, Rivian has also incorporated an optical function that uses the K2000's signature red light, which is now offered in a Knight Rider-inspired version, exclusive to Rivian. The Knight Rider scanner effect adds an attention-grabbing glow and is a unique light signature. It's a fun throwback and a smart way to give Rivian owners a retro touch. On the other hand, we could have done without the rear wiper light.

David Hasselhoff's appearance in the update launch video shows that the update serves enthusiasts and innovators alike. It's always a good idea for an automaker to show its desire to push boundaries by blending automotive technology with popular culture, especially when the target buyers are from this generation. Beyond just building electric cars, Rivian adds fun and personality to the driving experience, which especially resonates with fans who grew up watching KITT's adventures.
